"MOTHER is DEAD"

Sorrow broods upon blackened wing,
Death has come with his cruel sting;
Hearts are bleeding, pleading and crushed,
While rooms are darkened and voices hushed
A mother sleeps. and world of care
Has passed from the brow of marble there;
And the sweet white lips are closed for aye
Needless, at last, to the children'scry.
A motheriess brood, with aching hearts,
A new, fresh grief as each day departs;
Nothing remains save deep, black pail,
And hooking echoes through room and hal
Echoes OF earth on q eofin lid,
Thoughts of face forever hid,
Shafts of pain that pierce and rend.
Sobbing farewells TO our only friend
Echoes of mothers words and song,
Echoes that come In hurrying throng-
OF kindness and love- and patient ways,
OF watchful care through nights and days
Memory of hands with toll acQuaint,
or burdens borne with no complaint;
Echoes of prayers, and hopes, and fears,
perfect trust through many years;
Echoes OF all that Ve did or said
To whiten the hair in that mothers head
Memory OF acts, in a childish mood,
That showed to her ingratitude.
Vainly we call and cry, and weep,
We can not awaken from that sleep
The mother who loved us and gave us birth,
Her dear form rests meath a swell of earth.
But night has fallen, the day is done,
And sorrow reigns on his dread, black throne.
Mother is dead!' is our wailing cry,
And hollow echoes go hurrying by.
Oh, who can tell OF mothers love?
Who can measure, save God aboveS
And none can tell Of a mothers loss
But those who bear that heavy cross

How They Succeed I'm Opening Oyster
With Neatness and Dispatch.


So many people have expressed their
surprise at hearing that / constantly
saw monkeys breaking open oysters
with a stone on the islands off South
Burmah. that if NAV be of interest to
give a short description of their
method of using such 4 tool. The
low-water rocks of the islands of the
Mergui Archipelago are covered with
oysters, large and small. A monkey.
probably macaeus cynOmolgus, which
infests these islands. prowls about the
shore when the tide is low, opening
the rock oysters with a stone by strik-
ing the base of the upper valves unit
it dislocates and breaks up. He then
extracts the oyster with his finger and
thumb, occasionally putting his mouth
straight to the broken shell. On dis
turbing them l generally found that
they had selected a stone more APP
parently for convenience in handling
than for its value as hammer, and il
was smaller in proportion to what o
human being would have selected for a
proportionate amount of work. In
short, it was usually stone they could
get their fingers round. As the rocks
crop up through the low-water mud.
the stone had to be brought from high
water mark. this distance varying from
ten to eighty yards. This monkey has
chosen the easiest way to open the
rock-oyster-viz. {: to dislocate the
valves by blow on the base of the up
per one, and to break the shell over
the attaching muscle. The gibbon

him that he was laboring under

My explanation was no doubt under

ment of the dreadful fright in that
white, twitching face. A feeble hand
was reached out and laid on my arm,
and then the fingers closed on it, as

two documents into my hand. One

other was the draft of Horace Bulstrode

Emmett Adair. The engagement had

ding was at hand, when a shocking
tragedy interrupted it. The dead body
of Adair was found floating in the
river. In all the excitement and con-
sternation produced by the occurrence.
nothing appeared at all tending to
show foul play. The verdict of the
coroner's jury, of accidental drown

without question. Two years later.
when time had largely assuaged grief,
the widowed maiden was united to
Horace Bulstrode.
In the silence of the night, when
the clerks had all gone. the
remorseful millionaire poured into
the ears of the astounded Dingley the
secret of fifty years. He was himself
the murderer of Emmett Adair Dur.
ing all these years conscience had slum-
bered; its pangs had become so dulled
as to cause not the least outward mani
festation. Of sudden, in a flash of
gas-light, the murdered man had that
night stood before him.
But this is all delusion, SIR" Ding
ley had demonstrated. '.All this, you
say, happened fifty years ago; now,
Irving is hardly twenty-five, as have

"Peacer cried Bulstrode. 81 know

My fortune is at your command. Bury

never let that man cross my path again!

the large bequest which you say he has
left me i'm his will?"
L think L shall never forget the So
lemnity with which Peter replied:
Il might have done so-but
he forestalled me. In his
last sickness, but while his mind was
perfectly unclouded he sent for his
lawyer to draw his will, and was also
asked to attend.
"'What is the name of your friend in
Europe?' he asked me.
Il told him.
"'Mr. Edgerton, he said, put down
Irving Glenn, late of this city, but
now travelling in Europe, for twenty
five thousand dollars. / wish to make
him substantial acknowledgment for
valuable services
HE beekoned to me to put my face
close down to his pillow that the law

to whisper.
"'But, mark my words, Peter, that
bequest will never be claimed. That
man will never be seen on earth after
